During yesterday and this morning I have been cutting the paper to size, gridding it out and drawing out my image. This has taken quite a while as the paper is so big and much larger than I am use to, it took a lot long than I expected to cut the paper and gridding it out took especial long, however I do think that this was because I don't think that I cut the paper particularly straight, so as I was measuring out the grid all of the line started to go a little awry. However in the end I managed to make to grid work. I then started to draw out the image, this was difficult but not as hard as I thought it might be, as the grid really helped, However I did have to move back a lot further than I am use to as the paper is so much bigger than I have ever worked on before.
This afternoon I started doing a little bit of the painting but I will have to carry on tomorrow, I think that this will probably take the whole week to paint.
So far I think that it is looking good and I an happy with how it is starting to look.
